5 The Ukrane Systems on Nuclear Power Plants are classified in 4 classes based on the influence on Plant safety. - 1 Class: Fuel elements and systems of NPP which failures lead to the fuel elements damage exceeding the limits specified for the Design basis event (DBE). - 2 Class: Systems which failures lead to the fuel elements damage within the limits of DBE. Elements of safety systems which failures lead to failures in operation of such systems. - 3 Class: Elements of safety systems not belonging to 1 and 2 safety classes. Systems for protection of plant personnel and residential population from radiation. - 4 Class: System for normal operation of NPP which are not relevant for safety. Other systems not belonging to1, 2 and 3 safety classes B. DISCUSSIONS AND UPDATES 1. Brief Discussion on NPEC Goals J. Gleason 2. Status of IEEE/IEC P62582 Series (Condition Monitoring) K.

7 D. EVENTS DISCUSSION I. Vendor Updates Vendors Present Rosemont : The new generation transmitters are being qualified for the new reactor sites. Wyle: Currently equipped to conduct test on AP1000 profile. Seismic table to handle 10g on single axis on a snmall table and large for 6g. Valve testing capability for 300psi and 700F is currently available. Rockbestoes: Tests are being conducted for plants in China. 60 year qualification is progressing. Moisture resistance is also being evaluated. James Dean: Several MOVs are being tested for concerns in developing low torque. Magnesium rotors appear to have a dominant problems with adequate torque.
